Hamburgers Are Heroin

Published on Thursday, September 30, 2010, by James Norton / Edit Post

An Australian anti-child-obesity commercial gets down to business with a stark clarity that Jamie Oliver can only dream of: With a few deft visual flourishes, it equates feeding your child a hamburger to pumping smack directly into his innocent little arm. Fair? Not particularly. Clear and vivid? Yeah, definitely.

  • Isn't this the opposite of "heroin chic", fashion models being emaciated and generally unhealthy-looking while parading around in the latest schmatas?

  • There are too many fat kids in Australia, yes... but I'm pretty sure the biggest offending parents won't even understand or relate to this ad. Seconding the idea of an opium hamburger.

  • Brilliant idea, a heroin (or opium) stuffed, bacon wrapped hamburger. Maybe deep fry the whole thing.

  • Why can't we love both?
